Okkervil River - Numbers Lyrics

Submitted by: AUTO-ADD

It was not what I thought it would be. I have made my mistake, now I come running to you like you said I would do. It's so hard not to hide cause you're safe. Now I need protection from all the things I have made, so I come flying to you like you swore I would do, but there's only a stone in your place. Well, they said I needed protection from life, but it's over now. Give me strength, I need resurrection again, let it all come out. They said "it's just minor surgery, just one tiny scar," but I drove home in my car and it seemed like so far, and the gas needle fell like a star. Numbers come and they crowd me out in a cloud above my head. I fight each equation till it's dead, then I put them to bed and I paw at the hole in my chest. How could you let me become this? How could you make my small bones grow as tall as a tower? Oh, take my power away, I'm begging you to take it away. Hold my hand as you lay me down. Reach into that jar, cause I am ready to restart, and you can even stop my heart if there's no going back, no escape. Well, they said I needed protection from life, but it's over now. Give me strength, I need resurrection again, let it all come out.
